Husband buys wife a $900 cupcake for her birthday

There a lot of things I would like for my birthday: A
waffle breakfast, some warm socks, maybe season 2 of
The Mindy Project on DVD. But a $900 cupcake is not on my list. But that's exactly what a husband gave his wife for her birthday, a $900 cupcake!
The Globe and Mail interviewed the baker from Toronto's
Le Dolci Bakery, who was tasked with creating the expensive cupcake. She says the husband really wanted to impress his wife! So what goes into a $900 cupcake? Well there's a Champagne filling, a chocolate cup covered in gold flakes and sugar diamonds then champagne caviar on top ! I assume the
cupcake was delicious, it should have been with such a hefty price tag. But personally, I would have been impressed if someone made me the
Ultimate Chocolate Cupcakes, which cost a whopping 99 cents per serving! Then you can use the other $899 towards something else, like a college fund for your kids or a really nice piece of jewellery that you will wear for the rest of your life, not eat in one day!
